Cigna Sunday Streets

Due to the weather, outdoor family activities and film screenings at Asia Society Texas Center will be cancelled for Cigna Sunday Streets Houston. Artist Talk with Pixy Yijun Liao will continue as scheduled, and visitors will still enjoy complimentary admission to exhibitions. 

Cigna Sunday Streets Houston is a free family-friendly opportunity to be physically active. One Sunday a month, selected Houston streets are closed to motorized traffic allowing Houstonians to cycle, walk, run, dance, and socialize in the street. The April route will start on Caroline Street near the Houston Museum of African American Culture (HMAAC), then move south to include Asia Society Texas Center and run down Caroline until Binz Street, finally extending until the corner of Binz and Chenevert Street.
